Young Thug apologizes to Mariah the Scientist after cheating admission in leaked jail call

Young Thug admits infidelity in Fulton County Jail call, apologizes publicly to Mariah the Scientist.

Leaked audio from Fulton County Jail has placed rapper Young Thug’s personal life under scrutiny once again. A recording that surfaced online on September 6, obtained during his incarceration, captures the rapper admitting to cheating on singer Mariah the Scientist, his partner since 2021.

My baby I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put u through. U deserved better from me. Thank you for everything and I will do anything to make this work. U showed me what love is and I hope I haven’t lost u forever… everybody leave her out of this please she’s an innocent girl…

In the call, Young Thug discusses a dispute that arose when photos from his house appeared online. Initially, he told Mariah the incident had happened long before, but later confessed it took place just one day before his May 2022 arrest on racketeering charges. The revelation has cast new light on the couple’s relationship, which has often been visible through Mariah’s public support during Thug’s legal battles.

Mariah has regularly attended court hearings and performed shows in his honor, but the leaked tape underscores private struggles the couple has faced. The rapper addressed the controversy publicly with a message on X, writing: “My baby I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put u through. U deserved better from me… please give her peace.”

This is not the first time jail calls have drawn attention to Young Thug’s life behind bars. Previous leaks have included conversations referencing fellow artists such as Future, Travis Scott, and Drake, while others highlighted lighter exchanges with friends and acquaintances. A separate 2022 recording with model Lena Sayed also stirred discussion during his ongoing RICO trial.

For now, Young Thug’s legal case remains the central focus, but the leaked recordings continue to intertwine his personal life with public debate, adding further complexity to his already high-profile situation.
